Miss Lewis: Well, we've finally put the finishing touches [00:00:00]
on the training programs for next year. [00:00:03]
Here's a report showing the projected costs [00:00:06]
as well as the expected return on investment.[00:00:08]
GM: Return on investment? [00:00:11]
How can you have a return on this kind of investment? [00:00:14]
Can you really calculate the value of these training programs?[00:00:17]
Miss Lewis: Sure! It's not a real figure, of course. [00:00:21]
It's just an estimate based on rehiring costs, [00:00:23]
and the potential lost revenue that results from incompetence.[00:00:26]
GM: Wow! I'm impressed. [00:00:31]
So, what's in the cards for future training?[00:00:33]
Will it be in-house or off-site?[00:00:36]
Miss Lewis: A little of both. [00:00:39]
We'll have a few daylong sessions for things [00:00:41]
like business writing skills and software training. [00:00:43]
Those are available to everyone. [00:00:46]
We also have a variety of other programs based on each department's needs.[00:00:48]
GM: Yes, I see that here ... continuing education for the IT department, [00:00:53]
a time management course for accounting, [00:00:58]
and team building for sales. [00:01:01]
Anything planned for HR?[00:01:03]
Miss Lewis: A holiday, I hope! [00:01:06]
No, really, we are looking into some courses on motivational techniques. [00:01:07]
We'll add them to the list when we choose a lecturer.[00:01:11]
